Risians Love Paris, So Do the Mari?
That’s a very unique piece of architecture seen in the 24th Century Paris skyline. The Risians were really taken by it and copied it down to the last self-sealing stembolt for their main government building. Because it’s never anything mundane like a re-used matte plate.
The Mari on the other hand are in the Delta Quadrant, so it must be Hodgkin’s Law of Parallel Planetary Development.
Hodgkin’s Law of Parallel Planetary Development was a biological theory first postulated by A.E. Hodgkin. The theory was that similar planets with similar environments and similar populations tended to gravitate toward similar biological developments over time. Although initially applicable only to biology, it was later expanded to include a tendency to move toward similar sociological developments as well with sentient beings.
